== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
2-amino-benzo[d]thiazole has been identified as new core moiety for the development of improved PTR1 inhibitors and anti-Trypanosomatidic agents. Through a molecular docking approach and the crystal structure of 6-(methylsulfonyl)benzo[d]thiazol-2-amine ternary complex with TbPTR1, 42 new compounds were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit T. brucei and L. major PTR1 enzymes and in-vitro activity against Trypanosoma brucei and amastigote stage of Leishmania infantum. We identified several 2-amino-benzo[d]thiazole derivatives with improved activity against the enzymes (TbPTR1 IC50 = 0.35 microM; LmPTR1 IC50 = 1.9 microM) and anti-parasitic activity against T. brucei in the low microM range. Ten compounds, with low/sub micromolar inhibitor activity against TbPTR1, were able to potentiate the antiparasitic activity of methotrexate (MTX) when evaluated in combination against T. brucei, with a Potentiating Index (PI) ranging between 1.2 and 2.7. The compound library was profile for an early ADME-Toxicity profile and the compounds showing the best in vitro/enzymatic inhibition properties were selected for progression. 2-amino-N-benzylbenzo[d]thiazole-6-carboxamide (4c), was finally identified as a novel potent and selective anti-trypanocydal agent (EC50 = 7.0 microM) with an overall safe early ADME-Toxicity profile. The pharmacokinetic studies of 4c in BALB/c mice using a hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin formulation yielded good oral bioavailability, confirming its suitability for progression to in-vivo anti-parasitic studies.
